The unit was great. We also had a full kitchen for our use. Very clean and quiet even though it is next to the main road. We had a very good night's rest. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Gave us choices of milk for our morning coffee and offered me the use of the hair dryer before I even asked him. He also showed us where we could get food etc.

This property is amazing. James and James are delightful hosts, extremely friendly and attentive. The dinner and breakfast were both excellent as was the room and all the facilities. The history to the house is very interesting indeed. This is a must stay property if you are in the area…

I came for the Victorian Heritage Festival and to catch up with friends. I really love the historic precinct, the harbour and Gardens. They all have an old world charm. People are friendly. The St Patrick's Basilica is really worth visiting.

A discovery really, as it was the most convenient place for a break in our journey but what a wonderful central location it turned out to be to see many surrounding wonders. Each season would have its own reasons for spending time here, which is exactly what I now intend to do.

I liked exploring the river and would have fished if we had stayed. Food at the local pub was good, we didn't try the steaks. There are lots of families who go to Kurow camping for the water activities in the lakes. There is a newish wetland to explore, and others like to cycle the area. The penguins are 90 kilometers away there are a fossil attraction down the road.

It's a very special place to have crayfish and fresh fish at the Fish Wife. It's the only reason we travel and stay at Moeraki. Absolutely loving it. The Moeraki Tavern is also another fantastic place to eat. I highly recommend both.

Hampden pub was nice to eat and relax for the whole family. They have games for kids to play, pingpong, table tennis and fus ball. Will go back some day.

I loved everything about Waianakarua.

I loved everything about Waianakarua. The scenery, energy, the big spacious outdoor space was beyond me. The room I stayed in was dry, warm & safe. The owners were lovely and accomodating checking up daily on us. It’s a great stay of a spot for individual travel, couple travelling & also for families. The main kitchen & lounge area was gorgeous & comfortable & I will be back definitely.

The beach ( Campbells Bay) was just stunning for walking and a quick dip. Very sheltered. Loved chatting to the locals at the market, the dairy and the owners of Kakanui Tomatoes. All so incredibly friendly . We took our bikes which was great for looking around because the town is quite spread out . We are coming back

The heavy rain precluded too much driving around, but locating historical places was rewarding earlier on., With Labour Day celebrations, it meant most people were at home celebrating a day off (which was good) but not so much to participate in through the day. However a very good meal was enjoyed at Star and Garter down the road and I would thoroughly recommend visiting there.

Often overlooked as a passing point to more exotic destination, this little stop over town has a few worthy attractions; the Clay Cliffs, the Ahuriri River, the Hot tub and the Glider rides etc. It is also near Twizel and Lake Ohau too.
